My wife has been with a flu combined with bronchitis for a week now. She’s doing her own thing. But it doesn’t seem to be working. She’s on vitamin C supplements, cough elixir, foot soaks, ginger tea, avocado tea, tawa tawa tea, cayenne tincture and some cooked meat / soup.
What do I think? I’ve given my advice, but you know how it is with loved ones. My advice is keep it simple. Full raw paleo diet until well. Do some oil pulling. That’s it. The simpler the better.
My theory is that flu and fevers of this sort are mere detox reactions. Cooked foodists overloaded with cooked food need rest and recuperation and raising of body heat to digest bad cooked matter. Stop the cooked food madness temporarily and let the body rest from cooked food.
Now she’s thinking of probably other than physical causes? Ah, whatever makes her feel good.
Dude! Your family seems to always be sick!!! No wonder your blog is titled, “My Family Health Blog” – there is something to write about your family almost daily.
Maybe they need to stop being medicated with “natural remedies” constantly and just live healthfully. The “cooked foodists” who follow Dr. McDougall’s simple diet don’t get sick nearly as often as your kids and wife (and you?). Neither do the raw dudes at 30bananasaday.com. But no, I guess you know all, and they are missing something vital only found in butter, and they just haven’t eaten enough of it yet, or it wasn’t during a full moon when the cow was milked…
Insanity – when you keep doing the same thing, expecting to get different results.
Isn’t what you’re doing insanity?
Hey Shane,
Your eyes see through your biased lenses should be adjusted!
My blog shows exactly the contrast between me being a raw foodist who does not get sick and my own family members who are cooked foodists and get sick from time to time.
Why my wife keeps doing those inane stopgap methods vs what I recommend is just simple raw food.
And your buddies at 30bananasaday.com are truly sick all the time, in their blood and in their head. I already tried those fruitarian and vegan diets and they caused me extreme malnutrition.
I am now a COMPLETE raw foodist with raw paleolithic diet Fruit + Veg + RAW MEAT. You should join us at http://www.rawpaleoforum.com
Kids get sick all the time, esp. if they live in the ever polluted Metro Manila. They can’t help it, it’s too dirty here.
I’m on a raw paleo diet and I don’t get sick.
There’s the contrast right there.
